Former Minister of Finance, Seth Terkper, has unveiled a 30-page book titled "For the Records," which chronicles developmental projects undertaken in the Anyaa Sowutuom Constituency, Accra, during the tenure of the previous National Democratic Congress (NDC) government. The book, authored by Raphael Apetorgbor, Deputy Communications Officer of the constituency, meticulously documents various infrastructural projects, some of which have been neglected by the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia administration. "For the Records" highlights key developments such as the construction of the Sowutuom Court Complex, the Ga Central Municipal Assembly Building, multi-storey school blocks, the Awoshie-Pokuase Highway, and the enhancement of local markets. These projects are presented as tangible evidence of the NDC's commitment to the constituency's progress. During the book launch in Ablekuma, a suburb in Accra, Terkper lauded Apetorgbor for compiling a detailed account of the NDC's achievements in the constituency. He urged NDC members and executives to use the book as a strategic tool to build support for the party, emphasizing that it serves as crucial evidence to debunk claims that the NDC's Green Book is riddled with inaccuracies. "We are presenting the community with the facts and evidence so that when lies are spread about projects in the constituency, they can speak up and appreciate the NDC's good works," Terkper asserted. He also encouraged NDC communication executives nationwide to follow Mr Apetorgbor's example, stressing the importance of letting "the evidence speak for us." Additionally, Terkper underscored the significance of responsible fiscal management, noting that such practices are essential for sustainable development. He reaffirmed the NDC's dedication to prioritising infrastructural development across all communities in the country. Emmanuel Nii Ashie Moore, Greater Accra Regional Chairman of the NDC, who also attended the event, highlighted the importance of truth and unity within the party. He called on NDC members and the broader Ghanaian populace to rally behind the party, assuring that all promises in the NDC's manifesto would be fulfilled if they were returned to power. He commended Raphael Apetorgbor for his courage and commitment in documenting the truth through his book. Apetorgbor, in explaining his motivation for writing "For the Records," expressed concern over the misinformation surrounding the NDC's projects in the Anyaa Sowutuom constituency. He feared that without factual counter-narratives, such misinformation might gain traction. "This publication is more than just a collection of photographs and writings; it is a comprehensive record of our achievements," he stated. Apetorgbor emphasized that the evidence presented in the 30-page book stands in stark contrast to the claims made by the New Patriotic Party (NPP), showcasing the significant contributions of the previous NDC government.
